is that good or bad?

Take it off the rail. Point it at your face, in the dark.
its not the brightest.
But it should do a good job.

 

[Birds Away]

It was a freebie from some program at work. Had points to burn up and I got that and cheapy predator call. Free is good.

That makes it an outstanding light.

 

[SEIndSAM]

They derailed an overhead crane.
That's gonna suck.

Duct Tape.....

Right before you really hurt his feelings.


I like the 22 better than any other Glock I have shot, so far. They are accurate, comfortable to shoot and well-balanced.

Thats not really a 22 anymore. That now has a 9mm barrel in it and will soon be suppressed.

[actaeon277]

And THIS is why we worry about you.

My job is "relatively" safe.
And so am I.

But if something happens, I hope it's quick. Like when Alex fell off a crane.
And not like the poor s.o.b. that was off the side of a ladle that bubbled over. He lived long enough to crawl 20 foot.

You switched teams? I imagine that will be a nice, soft shooter.

Did you get it worked out...???

Seeing too much death can weigh on your soul. I'm not sure you ever get over it. I haven't.

Duct Tape.....

Buttload of duct tape.

They have to get the BIG man-lifts out.
Take jacks, crib materials, chain hoists up there.
Chain hoist in place.
jack up.
Crib
repeat 1000 times.

Eventuallyncheck

 

[actaeon277]

Eventually check rails for damage, the 4 bridge motors and gearboxes. Brakes.

I used to have to "walk the rails" to the trolley.
Imagine walking on a railroad track.
Now imagine its 80-100 foot up.

I've been lucky and didn't witness any.
Except for reviewing tapes.
And knowing the guys.


Used to be a guy I worked with, he witnessed a crew of, I think 4 get steel showered on them.
Even after they were gone, Tony was never the same.
Eventually he was medically unfit for work, shown the door.
We break em. Not fix em.

 

[actaeon277]

Ok. Done with the depressing topics.


My Christmas lights are up.
I hope to finish the new addition this weekend.
Then work on a song or two.
Put it on youtube for everyone to see.

I haven't really messed with them any more. I put the G22 slide on the stock frame, and the 17C on the frame with the competition trigger, for now. They both function as they should.
I'm probably gonna order the custom G34 slide and barrel for the 17c.

 

[db1959]

Is that so you can find the pieces of your gun when it blows up?

Nope.

I cant even walk down stairs.

I am totally lost.

 

[maansmit]

I think I might actually get to go out and shoot Monday. Anyone want to come?

 

[actaeon277]

Nope.

Well, I'm probably at that level now.
But it's no fun anymore. The put guy lines in and make you wear a harness.
